Biography

edit

Ivana is the daughter of Juan Carlos Icardi and Analía Rivero, who have been separated for a decade. In 2001, when Argentina exploded into the worst crisis in its history, the two decided to move the entire family to the Canary Islands, where they lived until their separation. After the end of the marriage, Juan Carlos decided to return to Rosario and opened a butcher shop, while Analía stayed in Spain, where she met the engineer Emiliano Hernández, whom she married sometime later. [1]

The most known of Rosario's brothers is the footballer Mauro Icardi. After having a very close relationship with Mauro, he recently distanced himself due to a public war with Wanda Nara. The other son of the marriage between Juan Carlos Icardi and Analía Rivero is Guido, the youngest of the three (he was born in 1996), who resides in Rosario with his father and is a tattoo artist. As he revealed, his relationship with Mauro is also distant due to his bad relationship with the player's wife. [2]

He also has five other half-siblings, three from his father's side (Juan Jesús, Aldana, and Franco) from a previous marriage and two from his mother's relationship with her current partner. The mother, meanwhile, had twins Alessandro and Martina, who are not Icardi but carry their father's last name, Hernández. [3]
